Appreciation
We had an incredible experience working with Patti, Wendi and the Taste design team on our new home. They took the time to learn our likes and dislikes, and then worked with us to perfectly capture the relaxed, coastal feel we were hoping for—light, airy, and welcoming. Because we were building our home remotely, Taste served as a trusted partner and critical member of our design and build team, working seamlessly with our architect and builder throughout the process. Their ideas and input improved our home in countless ways, with thoughtful details that make the space both elegant and comfortable. We couldn’t be happier with the result.
